King Cobra Clutch with a Pro 5.0 shifter. It is really hard to get in gear. What should I check?

Theres some stops in the shifter that have to be adjusted or you clutch cable may need to be adjusted.

You need to adjust the shift stops. If you have the factory clutch in your car, pull up on the clutch pedal (youll feel a click) and it will auto adjust for you.

i was having the same problem. And i fixed it by adjusting the clutch cable. King cobra clutch should be hassle free to adjust.
